Game is pretty fun but maybe a little too much like BF2042
Really enjoying sniping but servers getting kind of laggy for me so off for the night

And I don't mind that if the mechanics are good, maps are well designed and it doesn't have predatory monetization
not everything needs to revolutionize the genre

Looks to be around 2 weeks, theres twitch drops until the 16th according to a random on reddit. Plenty of time.

Few matches on the extraction mode. Yeah this is my bag. Was getting laggy and could do with pad support as my wrist cant handle K+M for too long, but overall very promising. Will play some more tomorrow.
Seems like and in-between of DMZ and Tarkov on first impressions. Lots to dig into.
Hopefully the monetization isn't too funky on release because the overall package even in "Alpha" seems very good for a FTP title so far.
Really surprised they are not selling this.

Yeah Started ok for me but last match ended up with quite a bit of lag. But that's what the test is for I guess.
On the plus side it seems to run great.

In a shock to nobody who has been paying attention. This game plays and feels much better than any of the recent battlefields. I'm having a blast. The casual Tarkov mode is also a good bit of fun.

I didn't play that much Tarkov but i did play a fair bit of DMZ. Like i said above its seems to lie in-between the two.
The inventory system reminds me of Tarkov from what little ive played. You can repair gear, different ammo types and rarities etc.
The actual gameplay is more similar to DMZ i think i need to play more though i only had 4 matches last night.

Just the BF mode and Extraction mode for now

This is in a far better state and plays miles better than 2042 at launch by a mile and its only in Alpha.
I cant comment on how it is now as i refunded that trash.
I didn't find the TTK high either, like at all. If any i think i could do with being a tad higher.

thats crazy, it takes like 3 headshots with an M16 to kill someone. It's a single fire in the game, why is that normal to you?
also, like 7 body shots.

It didn't seem like that to me although i only had a couple of games on the BF mode. It was very laggy last night you sure it wasn't that? i seem to be getting beemed from all over.

I've just been using that default assault rifle. Haven't used the m16 but I think the ttk is spot on. You can kill pretty fast in close range and for longer range, its like 6-7 shots too I think. Pretty cool tho how they have a "damage falloff" line graph in the gun details to show you whats going on. I did go to the firing range and yeah it was 3 headshots for the default rifle too.
I was picking people off just single tapping them from long range. Took several shots but if ttk was any lower, it'd be a bit crazy for a normal assault rifle.
On an unrelated note, I saw people talking about how there's a lot of AI bots in each game. I wonder why they're doing that. Like sure, maybe if the queuing takes over a couple minutes to find a game. But I'm finding games in like 3 seconds lol. Kinda weird.

6-7 shots to kill someone is too much. and 3 M16 headies is too.
COD is super short for TTK. But if a game does COD +1 bullet I'm good with that too. Once it gets too high, forget it.

Tried the "Battlefield" mode.
In its current state, it doesn't do anything better than Battlefield. It actually doesn't come close in many aspects.
The game is still in alpha though, and Battlefield 2042 has had time to improve over the years, so it doesn't make sense to compare the two at the moment.
If the next Battlefield delivers, and I have a feeling it will, I'm not sure how this game will find an audience. Something would have to set it apart.
Still really looking forward to seeing where this game goes. The foundation is there, and it has potential.

BF games always release in a broken state and they dropped the ball hard with 2042 , but BF games still has that unique feeling. Those Battlefield moments called that for a reason, you dont find it anywhere

COD is way too fast, i don't mind some middle ground but a single shot rifle should do more than that or you get beat by pretty much anyone at medium range. It shouldn't be the same as an assault rifle.
I do agree with the others tho, the game runs really well and looks good enough and the control responsiveness is great. I'm just not a huge fan of the way shooting and movement, something about it feels very unsatisfying.

Same. There's dozens of us!

Yeah same here. I grew up playing SOCOM on ps2 and after that moved to Halo 3 and CoD on 360. So yeah, controller is my home for shooters.

Ever since Goldeneye ive gamed FPS's on a pad. I had a few years on K+M, but my wrists are fucked these days and cant hold the same position on a keyboard for very long.
Plus I like to lie on the sofa.

Ah, how could I forget about goldeneye on n64. I think that was one of the main reasons I cannot live without invert Y axis lol

Ha snap. Anyone who doesn't invert is just plan weird.

Sadly what will ruin this game for me is exactly what kills BF2042 for me, when one team has far superior helo pilots
Back to back games of just getting steam rolled because like this last game a pilot we simply couldn't take out of the air was 154-3 and the tank supporting him in the same group was over 100 kills with single digit deaths as well.
That's simply not fun

Does the beta have sniper mania like all BF games do? thats my biggest turnoff from giant map shooters.

The helicopter is so weird to control. Got into it and was just confused. However I still killed a ton of people before being taken out.
The devs really need to remove the system requirement restrictions. And enable controller support. Would like to play on the Legion go...
The one map on Rush is good but does remind me of a improved Bf2042 map. The urban, desert map is good tho.
The game feels like a mix between 2042, World War 3 and some other F2P shooter that I can't recall.
Overall I like it. It's free to play but shows promise.

There are usually a few snipers on each side but early on at least they arent OP
The last game I could ever actually fly in was BF Vietnam, loved cranking up the old music and killin

Hate this as well, what I think would b cool is very limited reinformcements. So maybe 2-3 Choppers per game but have to be earned through gameplay. Just allowing people t spawn in endless air support ruins the game in my opinion. Maybe make them like kill streaks in COD 12 kills in a row calls in a chopper that someone can fly etc.. There has to b some middle ground. I left BF because of the pilots who never touch the ground and just rack up 100 kills great fun for them but everyone else bailed.

Urgh, that ttk seems too high. Do they have halo style shields or some shit?!
Headshots should be instant, and 2-3 body shots

Just played my first game and it's very fun. Not a lot of vehicles though and the guns are a bit laser like but I like that actually.

They said just today in their AMA they plan on running it into the first week of Sept
I will copy paste their AMA
Read below for a quick rundown of some new info that was shared:
- We're aiming to run the PC Alpha into the first week of September.
- A new map, new Operator, and additional content are being added to the Alpha.
- Alpha test servers are in US, EU, and Singapore - but we plan to have servers everywhere at launch.
- No pay to win at all, and no microtransactions in the Campaign mode.
- Balance is very important, and is one of the reasons we are holding the Alpha test. We need player feedback to help balance the game correctly, so please continue to provide that.
- Operators have been included to enhance strategic options during play, and not for the sole purpose of selling skins. Having said that, we may add cosmetic items for popular Operators - but no skins that are out-of-character or spoil the integrity of the game.
- No current plans for proximity chat for Hazard Operations, but we do want to include it in Havoc Warfare.
- Regarding in-game chat, we are eager to receive more feedback on it's current implementation to determine what players want.
- The ability to customize weapons mid-match will be added to Havoc Warfare in the future.
- Regarding anti-cheat, we want to move more of the game's processing to the server side to combat cheaters, we're also aiming to block cheat software from other sources, and we hope the community will continue to to report cheaters.
- Fighter jets are on the way. We're making them right now, so expect them in future updates.
- The number of bots will be reduced as we continue to bring more people into the Alpha test.
- We like the idea of private rooms to practice against bots, and hope to implement something similar with Havoc Warfare first.
- Solo or Duo queues might be added, but are not confirmed yet.
- Time to kill (TTK) and armor will be monitored and adjusted based on player data and feedback.
- There will be no aim assist for mouse & keyboard players on PC. For how cross-play is supported, players can expect something along the lines of similar titles while we will keep listening to the community’s feedback.
- The Black Site will change based on how you upgrade it, and we hope the Black Site can reflect your identity and play style.
- Pets: maybe a crocodile? (just kidding!)
- Crafting times will be adjusted based on feedback.
- The current camera position, which sometimes allows players to avoid head damage, will be investigated.

I am at level 20 so not a ton of time in it but have only reported one player so far someone that repeatedly sniped me through rocks, walls and even through the hillside on Ascension with several times there was just no way he had a shot without shooting through a giant hill, love they at least show who killed you
Every once in awhile I run into someone who just straight lasers me with assault rifles from decent ranges but they simply might be great at recoil control though I did read people figured out how to alter some files to include no recoil and not get caught

Dude....
Everything is lighting up, you got screen shakes for headshots.... I dunno, this is looking and feeling more like apex than any tactical shooter Ive seen.
The game only identifies as Delta Force.
Edit:
Not saying the game is bad. Ive heard good things, but its not for me I think.
